Roy Jones Jr.: A Boxing Legend
Roy Jones Jr. is a name synonymous with boxing excellence. Known for his unparalleled speed, agility, and tactical prowess, Jones has left an indelible mark on the sport. His second fight against Antonio Tarver is etched in the annals of boxing history, and now, you have the opportunity to own a piece of that legacy.
The Iconic Fight-Worn Gloves
Presented here are the “GRANT” manufactured grey, white, and red gloves worn by Roy Jones Jr. during his second bout with Antonio Tarver. These gloves are not just sporting equipment; they are a piece of boxing history. The ten-ounce gloves, though missing some of their original laces, still bear the marks of battle. The inside of the thumb is inscribed with “R Jones” in pen, a personal touch from the champion himself. The leather on the wrist shows signs of wear from the taping, a testament to their use in the ring.
Inside the wrist, in black marker, are the words “12nd round” accompanied by what appears to be initials, adding another layer of intrigue to these gloves. Each glove is signed by Jones Jr. on the top wrist in black marker, with the inscription “Fight Worn Gloves Vs Tarver II,” rated a 9 for its clarity and significance.
Ronald Reese’s Cornerman’s Jumpsuit
Accompanying the gloves is a “JORDAN” manufactured grey cornerman’s jumpsuit worn by Ronald Reese. This jumpsuit is a striking piece of memorabilia, featuring the iconic “Jumpman” logo on the front left chest and “RONNIE” in red stitching on the right. “AIR JORDAN” is prominently displayed across the chest in white and red stitching, while the back boasts the number “23” with “ROY JONES JR.” stitched beneath it in red.
- Distinctive Design: The pants feature the number “23” on the right leg, with buttons adorned with the “Jumpman” logo along each pant leg.
- Unique Features: Both the top and bottom of the jumpsuit have five red stars stitched on the white trim, adding a touch of flair.
- Authenticity: These items are properly tagged, presented to us as fight-worn, and in our opinion, show great use.
This extraordinary collection is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from JSA, further cementing its status as a prized piece of sports memorabilia.
